Homemade Dishwasher Soap - Recipe Review #2

Last week we posted a review of the first homemade dishwasher detergent we made. This week, we are posting a review of the second recipe we tried. We found this recipe we on The Provident Prepper channel on YouTube.

Homemade Dishwasher Detergent #2

Ingredients:

1 c. washing soda

¼ c. food grade citric acid

¼ c. sea salt

20 drops lemon essential oil

Directions

Mix ingredients well. Be sure to break up any clumps. Store in a glass jar. Use 1 t. per load or 1 ½ t. per greasy load.


What we liked

  • The dishes were sparkling clean! 
  • The recipe is simple.
  • The ingredients are non-toxic.
  • There was no detergent taste left on the dishes.

What we didn't like

  • Citric acid isn't something we usually keep on hand (this will likely change given how well this recipe works).

Overall review

This recipe was fabulous! The dishes came out so clean (no streaks, no foggy glassware) and it only takes one teaspoon per load. It is actually such a great recipe and worked so well that I don't know if we even want to try another recipe for our dishwasher.
